The prevalence of type 2 diabetes and moderate fasting hyperglycemia is high in Guinea, while data on gestational diabetes are scarce. Objective: To determine the prevalence of Gestational Diabetes among women admitted for prenatal consultation, identify their socio-epidemiological characteristics and any associated risk factors. Patients and Methods: Prospective study conducted in pregnant women who came for prenatal follow-up in two urban health centers in the prefecture of Kindia, Guinea during the period from January 1 to June 30, 2018, screened according to the recommendations of International Association of Diabetes and Pregnancy Study Group (IADPSG). A single abnormal value is sufficient to make the diagnosis of GDM. All pregnant women between 24 and 28 SA were included. Women with multiple pregnancies and/or preexisting diabetes or refusal to participate in the study were excluded. The variables analyzed: maternal age, gestational age, parity and exposure or not to risk factors. The data were analyzed by specific statistical tests with a probability p<0.05. Results: Seven hundred and forty-two (742) pregnant women were screened with 103 cases of GDM diagnosed, representing a prevalence of 13.8%. The epidemiological profile of women with GDM was dominated by the average maternal age which was 28.7 ± 6.5 years, housewives 57.28% (59/103), no level of education 53.39% (55/ 103), married 67.96% (70/103) with an average parity of 2.11± 1.9. The average gestational age was 27.1 ± 5.6 SA. The risk factors were dominated by advanced maternal age, with a proportion of 70.27% and 13.41% of patients without risk factors, screening for GDM was positive (P < 0.000001). Conclusion:The GDM is frequent among the women followed at the prenatal consultation in Kindia. Systematic screening integrated with prenatal care remains the best means of prevention.

Introduction: Innovations in surgical and anaesthetic techniques to provide a good maternal and child safety have made the cesarean section a routine intervention in obstetrics. However, its complications, especially the short or long term per and postoperative maternal ones, are not exceptional and can affect mothers' vital prognosis. The objectives of this study were to describe the maternal per and postoperative complications encountered during the cesarean section. Patients and method: This is a prospective, descriptive and analytical study carried out at the maternity ward of Kankan Regional Hospital over a 6 month period from January 1, 2018 to June 30, 2018. Results: During this period, out of a total of 2229 deliveries, 319 caesarean sections were performed i.e. a rate of 12.51%. Complications concerned 111 patients (34.79%). The average age was 28 with extremes of 15 and 45. Non-medical transportation concerned 71.17% of our patients. The cesarean section was performed in emergency situations in 82.8% of cases. Indications were dominated by the fetopelvic disproportion. There was a statistically significant relationship between labour duration and the occurrence of complications. Intraoperative complications were dominated by bleeding (25.22% of all complications and 8.77% of total cesarean sections). Post-operative complications were dominated by parietal suppurations (94.49% of all complications and 34.79% of the total number of cesarean sections). In most cases, patients How to cite this paper: Diallo, M.982Open Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology simultaneously developed several complications. Conclusion: The maternal complications of cesarean sections remain considerable. If the increase in the rate of caesarean sections has contributed to the improvement of the mother-fetal prognosis, the surgical procedure itself is not without complications, which encourages us to review its indications for a better management. Hemorrhagic and infectious complications were the most frequent. These results call for increased asepsis measures in our operation theaters to reduce infectious complications. The increase in Caesarean section rates over the years is faced with increased maternal morbidity in the short and long term. Its indications should be well thought out and should include the responsibility of an experienced obstetrician.

Objectives: To describe the socio-demographic aspects of transferred parturient women; To identify the means of transport used by the evacuated parturient women to the Donka maternity ward at the University Hospital of Conakry; To describe the difficulties met; And to assess maternal and fetal prognosis. Methodology: It consisted of a prospective study over a period of 6 months from 01/02 to 31/07/2018. All patients transferred to the maternity ward of the Donka National Hospital of Conakry University Hospital. Results: The frequency of obstetric transfers was 13.79%. The epidemiological profile was that of a parturient woman of an average age of 25.7 years, married, and housewife, unschooled, who was on her first pregnancy and from the city of Conakry. The average distance covered was 16 km with extremes of 3 and 50 km. The transfer to the referral maternity clinic was not medicalized in 94% of cases. The venous route was not taken in 96% of cases. The parturient was not escorted by a health worker in 98% of cases. Bleeding was the most frequent reason for evacuation, followed by acute fetal sufferings. The average number of prenatal consultation was 2 with extremes of 0 and 9. The average length of stay was 3.6 days with extremes of 1 and 28 days. The majority of transferred women had a full-term pregnancy. The Cesarean section was 79.4%. The Retro placental hematoma was the most common complication found and was 29.4%. The counter-reference was not made in 97.79%. We recorded 8 maternal deaths, for a lethality rate of 1.77%.

Objectives: The objectives of this work were to calculate the frequency of the uterine rupture, to describe the epidemiological profile, to identify the etiologies and to establish the maternal prognosis and foetal. Methodology: It was about a descriptive survey with compilation of the data in two phases: a retrospective spreading on one period of 6 years and the other forecasting of 1 one year achieved to the service of Obstetric Gynecology of the hospital National Donka, Fallen from Conakry, Guinea. Results: We recorded 24.030 childbirths of which 188 cases of uterine rupture either a frequency of 0.78, which represents an uterine rupture for 128 childbirths. The epidemiological profile was the one of a woman of 24 to 28 years (31.91%), housewives (69.14%), without prenatal follow-up (47.87%), big multipare (37.76%) and évacuées (78.78%). The motives of consultation have been dominated by the hémorragie (95.74%). The rupture was of transverse type in the majority of the cas (63.82%). The hysterorraphy was the most performed surgical procedure which is 85.10% followed by the total sub hysterectomy in 10.63%. The newborns of birth weight superior or equal to 4000 g represent 25.53%. The maternal morbidity has been dominated by the anemia of the postpartum (60%). We recorded a rate of maternal létalité of 12.76%. The maternal deaths were due to the hemorrhage in 78.57%. The living newborns endured a respiratory distress in 9.57% and those stillborn represent 87.23%. The etiologies of uterine rupture were dominated by fetal-pelvic disproportions 48.
